Two other phenomena related to the sensory physiology of ticks are considered:
i.e. the function of leg sense hairs located on other leg segments than the foreleg
tarsi, and our discovery of intracuticular sensilla located ubiquitously on tick legs
...

We can now attempt to answer the questions asked at the beginning of this
chapter, i.e. do systematic position, life cycle, and ecology affect the structure of
the foreleg tarsal sensory system? Comparison of the six species which differ
greatly in ...
